Inhibition of phosphorylated calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIα relieves streptozotocin-induced diabetic neuropathic pain through regulation of P2X3 receptor in dorsal root ganglia - Xiao-fen He; Yu-rong Kang; Xue-yu Fei; Lu-hang Chen; Xiang Li; Yi-qi Ma; Qun-qi Hu; Si-ying Qu; Han-zhi Wang; Xiao-mei Shao; Bo-yi Liu; Yi-Liang; et al. (Purinergic Signalling, 2023)
Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) is frequent among patients with diabetes. We previously showed that P2X3 upregulation in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) plays a role in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DNP but the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, a rat model of DNP was established by a single injection of STZ (65 mg/kg). Fasting blood glucose was significantly elevated from the 1 st to 3 rd week. Paw withdrawal thresholds (PWTs) and paw withdrawal latencies (PWLs) in diabetic rats significantly reduced from the 2 nd to 3 rd week. Western blot analysis revealed that elevated p-CaMKIIα levels in the DRG of DNP rats were accompanied by pain-associated behaviors while CaMKIIα levels were unchanged. Immunofluorescence revealed significant increase in the proportion of p-CaMKIIα immune positive DRG neurons (stained with NeuN) in the 2 nd and 3 rd week and p-CaMKIIα was co-expressed with P2X3 in DNP rats. KN93, a CaMKII antagonist, significantly reduce mechanical hyperalgesia and thermal hyperalgesia and these effects varied dose-dependently, and suppressed p-CaMKIIα and P2X3 upregulation in the DRGs of DNP rats. These results revealed that the p-CaMKIIα upregulation in DRG is involved in DNP, which possibly mediated P2X3 upregulation, indicating CaMKIIα may be an effective pharmacological target for DNP management.

Soil bacterial communities play fundamental roles in ecosystem functioning and often display a skewed distribution of abundant and rare taxa. So far, relatively little is known about the biogeographical patterns and mechanisms structuring the assembly of abundant and rare biospheres of soil bacterial communities. Here, we studied the geographical distribution of different bacterial sub‐communities by examining the relative influence of environmental selection and dispersal limitation on taxa distributions in paddy soils across East Asia. Our results indicated that the geographical patterns of four different bacterial sub‐communities consistently displayed significant distance–decay relationships (DDRs). In addition, we found niche breadth and dispersal rates to significantly explain differences in community assembly of abundant and rare taxa, directly affecting the strength of DDRs. While conditionally rare and abundant taxa displayed the strongest DDR due to higher environmental filtering and dispersal limitation, moderate taxa sub‐communities had the weakest DDR due to greater environmental tolerance and dispersal rate. Random forest models indicated that soil pH (9.13%–49.78%) and average annual air temperature (16.59%–46.49%) were the most important predictors of the variation in the bacterial community. This study advances our understanding of the intrinsic links between fundamental ecological processes and microbial biogeographical patterns in paddy soils.

Integrative sperm DNA methylation and miRomics analysis highlights interaction of two epigenetic patterns of pseudomale inheritance in teleost - Na Zhao; Lei Jia; Lu Chen; Jieyan Lin; Zhongdian Dong; Bo Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Proper DNA methylation in spermatozoa is essential for the normal development of fertilized embryos through gene expression regulation. Abnormal sperm DNA methylation is associated with male fertility impairment, offspring quality decline, and disease susceptibility. Compared with other epigenetic regulatory mechanisms (e.g., histone modification), DNA methylation is a stable regulator for the long-term transcriptional activity of genes. Sperm DNA methylation is crucial to offspring’s survival, development, and reproduction. However, it has not been well studied in teleost to a large extent, especially in some species with sex deviation or congenital sex abnormality in offspring. In the present study, DNA methylation profiles of pseudomale (ZW) and male (ZZ) tongue sole ( Cynoglossus semilaevis ) spermatozoa were characterized for differential methylation regions (DMRs) screening. The global methylation levels of the two sperm groups were highly methylated with no significant differences. For all kinds of genomic elements, the mean methylation level of the ZW group was higher than that of the ZZ group. The total numbers of Covered C annotated on the W chromosome of both groups were extremely small, suggesting that W-type sperm did not exist in pseudomales. A comparison of methylation levels on 20 sex-related genes between sperm and gonad showed that the heterogeneity between tissue resources was greater than that between sexes, and the methylation level of most genes in gonads was lower than that in sperm. For integrative analysis of DNA methylation and miRomic profiles, 11 sex-related DMRs associated with 15 differentials micro RNAs (miRNAs) in spermatozoa were identified to present targeting relationships and regulatory trends of the two distinct epigenetic patterns. This study provides valuable and potential targets of coordination between two epigenetic mechanisms in the process of C. semilaevis sex congenital bias.

A Review of Natural Gas Hydrate Formation with Amino Acids - Bo Li; You-Yun Lu; Yuan-Le Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Natural gas is a kind of low-carbon energy source with abundant reserves globally and high calorific value. It is cleaner and more efficient than oil and coal. Enlarging the utilization of natural gas is also one of the important ways to reduce carbon emissions in the world. Solidified natural gas technology (SNG) stores natural gas in solid hydrates, which is a prospective, efficient, safe and environmental-friendly strategy of natural gas storage and transport. However, the slow growth rate and randomness of nucleation during natural gas hydrate formation in pure water hinder the industrial application of this technology. As a kind of new and potential additives, biodegradable amino acids can be adopted as favorable kinetic promoters for natural gas hydrate synthesis. Compared with other frequently used chemical additives, amino acids are usually more friendly to the environment, and are capable of avoiding foam formation during complete decomposition of gas hydrates. In this paper, we have reviewed the research progress of gas hydrate generation under the promotion of amino acids. The formation systems in which amino acids can enhance the growth speed of gas hydrates are summarized, and the impact of the concentration in different systems and the side chains of amino acids on hydrate growth have been illustrated. The thermodynamic and kinetic behaviors as well as the morphology properties of hydrate formation with amino acids are summarized, and the promotion mechanism is also analyzed for better selection of this kind of potential additives in the future.

The algorithm has two features: first, it is based on SOM−BRFnn (self−organizing map–radial basis function neural network) to better reflect the clustering characteristics of the input parameters regarding wind and wave. In addition, the high-frequency variation part and the low-frequency variation part of SWH are separated by a threshold of 24 h to better describe the diurnal variation of SWH under the influence of tidal current. The algorithm is applied to the nearshore region of Nan-ao Island in the northeastern South China Sea. The results show that the algorithm can effectively correct the modeling results of nearshore SWH. Compared with the original outputs of the ERA5 model, the correlation coefficient is increased from 0.472 to 0.774, the root mean square error is reduced from 0.252 m to 0.103 m, and the mean relative error is reduced from 41% to 17.6%, respectively. Further analysis indicates that the frequency division is crucial in realizing the correction of the high-frequency variation of SWH. The results have reference significance for the application of wave numerical models in coastal areas.

Increased annual methane uptake driven by warmer winters in an alpine meadow - Peiyan Wang; Jinsong Wang; Bo Elberling; Lu Yang; Weinan Chen; Lei Song; Yingjie Yan; Song Wang; Junxiao Pan; Yunlong He; Shuli Niu (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Pronounced nongrowing season warming and changes in soil freeze–thaw (F–T) cycles can dramatically alter net methane (CH 4 ) exchange rates between soils and the atmosphere. However, the magnitudes and drivers of warming impacts on CH 4 uptake in different stages of the F–T cycle are poorly understood in cold alpine ecosystems, which have been found to be a net sink of atmospheric CH 4 . Here, we reported a year‐round ecosystem daily CH 4 uptake in an alpine meadow on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau after a 5‐year warming experiment that included a control, a low‐level warming treatment (+2.4℃ at 5 cm soil depth), and a high‐level warming treatment (+4.5℃ at 5 cm soil depth). We found that warming shortened the F–T cycle under the low‐level warming and soils did not freeze under the high‐level warming. Although both warming treatments increased the mean CH 4 uptake rate, only the high‐level warming significantly increased annual CH 4 uptake compared to the control. The warming‐induced stimulation of CH 4 uptake mainly occurred in the cold season, which was mostly during spring thaw under low‐level warming and during the frozen winter under high‐level warming due to a longer period with thawed soil. We also found that warming significantly stimulated daily CH 4 uptake mainly by reducing near‐surface soil water content in the warm season, whereas both soil water content and temperature controlled daily CH 4 uptake in different ways during the autumn freeze, frozen winter, and spring thaw periods of the control. Our study revealed a strong warming effect on CH 4 uptake during the entire F–T cycle in the alpine meadow, especially the unfrozen winter. Our results also suggested the important roles of soil pH, available phosphorus, and methanotroph abundance in regulating annual CH 4 uptake in response to warming, which should be incorporated into biogeochemical models for accurately forecasting CH 4 fluxes under future climate scenarios.

Directed movement changes coexistence outcomes in heterogeneous environments - Bo Zhang; King‐Yeung Lam; Wei‐Ming Ni; Rossana Signorelli; Kevin M. Collins; Zhiyuan Fu; Lu Zhai; Yuan Lou; Donald L. DeAngelis; Alan Hastings (Ecology Letters, 2022)
Understanding mechanisms of coexistence is a central topic in ecology. Mathematical analysis of models of competition between two identical species moving at different rates of symmetric diffusion in heterogeneous environments show that the slower mover excludes the faster one. The models have not been tested empirically and lack inclusions of a component of directed movement toward favourable areas. To address these gaps, we extended previous theory by explicitly including exploitable resource dynamics and directed movement. We tested the mathematical results experimentally using laboratory populations of the nematode worm, Caenorhabditis elegans . Our results not only support the previous theory that the species diffusing at a slower rate prevails in heterogeneous environments but also reveal that moderate levels of a directed movement component on top of the diffusive movement allow species to coexist. Our results broaden the theory of species coexistence in heterogeneous space and provide empirical confirmation of the mathematical predictions.

A Solution to Sand Production from Natural Gas Hydrate Deposits with Radial Wells: Combined Gravel Packing and Sand Screen - Yiqun Zhang; Wei Wang; Panpan Zhang; Gensheng Li; Shouceng Tian; Jingsheng Lu; Bo Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Sand production is one of the main problems restricting the safe, efficient and sustainable exploitation of marine natural gas hydrate. To explore the sand-control effects of gravel packing, experiments that simulate hydrate extraction in the water-rich environment were conducted with designed hydrate synthesis and exploitation devices. Three sand control completion methods, including 120 mesh sand screen, 400 mesh sand screen, 120 mesh sand screen combined with gravel packing, are adopted. Sand and gas production rates were compared under different well types and sand control completion methods. Results show that the gas production modes of radial wells and vertical wells are almost the same at the same time due to the small experimental scale and high permeability. The sand production of the vertical well with gravel packing combined with a sand-control screen is 50% lower than that of the vertical well with sand-control screens only. Radial well with gravel packing combined with sand-control screens produced 87% less sand than screen mesh alone. The cumulative gas production and recovery rates of a radial well with the composite sand control method are better than those without gravel packing in the same development time.

Potential Effect of the Intrusion of the Kuroshio Current into the South China Sea on Catches of Japanese Eel (Anguilla Japonica) in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait - Ching-Hsien Ho; Long-Jing Wu; Zhen Lu; Bo-Yi Lu; Yang-Chi Lan (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
This study examined the effect of the intrusion of the Kuroshio Current (KC) into the South China Sea (SCS) and the Taiwan Strait (TS) (SCS–TS region) on changes in catches of larval A. japonica in the traditional fishing ground waters of Gaoping near southwestern Taiwan in the SCS–TS region. First, the oceanic environment and recruitment trends from 1967 to 2019 were investigated based on secondary data. Then, field surveys were conducted to obtain primary data regarding the intrusion of the KC into the SCS, as well as the changes in the fishing sites and catches of A. japonica in the fall and winter of 2014–2015. Hence, the association between oceanic conditions and the number of A. japonica migrating into the SCS–TS region was explored. From 1967 to 2019, the recruitment proportion in the fishing grounds that formed due to the Kuroshio Branch Current (PKSBC) fluctuated significantly. Overall, positive values were observed for the Oceanic Niño Index for each year with a PKSBC > 50%, corresponding to El Niño conditions. In each year with a PKSBC > 70%, a looping path and a warm–core eddy appeared.

Physiological and Transcriptional Responses to Acute and Chronic Thermal Stress in the Ark Shell Scapharca subcrenata - Desheng Zou; Junhao Ning; Xia Lu; Xia Wang; Min Chen; Bo Liu; Jun Fang; Chunde Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Ark shells ( Scapharca subcrenata ) grown on the tidal flats are often exposed to high temperature stresses in summer. In order to better understand their adaption to extreme or natural high temperature, we first determined the 96-h upper lethal temperature of ark shell and then investigated their physiological and transcriptional responses to acute or chronic thermal stress at the 96-h upper median lethal temperature (32°C). A significantly higher cumulative mortality (52% in 96 h) was observed in the acute heating treatment (AHT) group than that (22% in 7 days) in the chronic heating treatment (CHT) group. The apoptosis and necrosis rates of hemocytes were increased significantly in a time-dependent manner under both thermal stress strategies. Activities of antioxidant enzymes [superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT)] increased dramatically in a short time followed by a quick decline and reached to a lower level within 12 h in the AHT group, but maintain relatively high levels over a long period in the CHT group. The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) were increased significantly firstly and restored to the original later in both acute and chronic thermal stress. Moreover, expression of the genes related to heat shock proteins (HSPs; HSP90 , HSP70 , HSP20 , and sHSP ), apoptosis [TNF receptor-associated factor 6 ( TRAF6 ), glucose regulated protein 78 kD ( GRP78 ), and caspase-3 ( Casp- 3)] and antioxidant responses [glutathione S-transferase ( GST ) and multidrug resistance protein ( MRP )] could be induced and up-regulated significantly by thermal stress, however, expression of regucalcin ( RGN ), metallothionein ( MT ), and peroxiredoxin ( PRX ) was down-regulated dramatically under the two heating treatments. These results suggested that anti-apoptotic system, antioxidant defense system and HSPs could play important roles in thermal tolerance of ark shells, and the heat-resistant ark shell strains could be selected continuously by properly chronic thermal stress.

Scaling up experimental stress responses of grass invasion to predictions of continental‐level range suitability - Bo Zhang; Yingdan Yuan; Lele Shu; Edwin Grosholz; Yuxi Guo; Alan Hastings; James P. Cuda; Jinchi Zhang; Lu Zhai; Jiangxiao Qiu (Ecology, 2021)
Understanding how the biological invasion is driven by environmental factors will improve model prediction and advance early detection, especially in the context of accelerating anthropogenic ecological changes. Although a large body of studies has examined how favorable environments promote biological invasions, a more comprehensive and mechanistic understanding of invasive species response to unfavorable/stressful conditions is still developing. Grass invasion has been problematic across the globe; in particular, C 4 grass invaders, with high drought tolerance, adaptations to high temperatures, and high water use efficiency, could become more severe. Here, we conducted a rigorous microcosm experiment, with one of the most damaging invasive C 4 grass, cogongrass ( Imperata cylindrica ), to explore how cogongrass responds to soil water and nutrient stress. We further integrated the results of the microcosm study with a species distribution model to (1) corroborate greenhouse results with field observations and (2) validate the robustness of our findings at subcontinental scales. Both the microcosm experiments and species distribution model agreed that soil water stress had a stronger impact on cogongrass than the nutrient one. New vegetative growth of cogongrass continued to be inhibited by the prior water stress. The significant water effect on cogongrass total biomass was supported by the finding that both allometric and biochemical traits of cogongrass did not show significant responses to the changes in water treatment. Different to the conventional wisdom that nutrient enrichment plays a bigger role in facilitating biological invasions, this study highlighted the possibility that water conditions may have a more substantial effect on some aggressive invaders. Therefore, an important implication of this study on biological conservation is that field managers might take advantage of the negative effect of global drought on some invasive species to increase the efficiency of their controlling efforts because invasive species may become more vulnerable under drought effect.

Kidney disease is manifested in a wide variety of phenotypes, many of which have an important hereditary component. To delineate the genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of pediatric nephropathy, a multicenter registration system is being implemented based on the Chinese Children Genetic Kidney Disease Database (CCGKDD). In this study, all the patients with kidney and urological diseases were recruited from 2014 to 2020. Genetic analysis was conducted using exome sequencing for families with multiple affected individuals with nephropathy or clinical suspicion of a genetic kidney disease owing to early-onset or extrarenal features. The genetic diagnosis was confirmed in 883 of 2256 (39.1%) patients from 23 provinces in China. Phenotypic profiles showed that the primary diagnosis included steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS, 23.5%), glomerulonephritis (GN, 32.2%), congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT, 21.2%), cystic renal disease (3.9%), renal calcinosis/stone (3.6%), tubulopathy (9.7%), and chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu, 5.8%). The pathogenic variants of 105 monogenetic disorders were identified. Ten distinct genomic disorders were identified as pathogenic copy number variants (CNVs) in 11 patients. The diagnostic yield differed by subgroups, and was highest in those with cystic renal disease (66.3%), followed by tubulopathy (58.4%), GN (57.7%), CKDu (43.5%), SRNS (29.2%), renal calcinosis /stone (29.3%) and CAKUT (8.6%). Reverse phenotyping permitted correct identification in 40 cases with clinical reassessment and unexpected genetic conditions. We present the results of the largest cohort of children with kidney disease in China where diagnostic exome sequencing was performed. Our data demonstrate the utility of family-based exome sequencing, and indicate that the combined analysis of genotype and phenotype based on the national patient registry is pivotal to the genetic diagnosis of kidney disease.

Hadal trenches remain one of the unexplored ocean ecosystems due to the challenges of sampling at great depths. It is still unclear how a faunal community changes from the abyssal to the hadal zone, and which environmental variables are the key impacting factors. In this study, nine dives of the Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV) “ JIAOLONG ” were conducted from abyssal to hadal depths (4,435–6,796 m) in the Yap Trench on the southeastern boundary of the Philippine Sea Plate in the western Pacific, divided into 48,200 m video transects, to describe the megafaunal communities and reveal their relationship with environmental factors. A total of 1,171 megafauna organisms was recorded, 80 morphospecies (msps) from 8 phyla were identified based on the video data, most of which were reported for the first time in the Yap Trench. Arthropoda was the most abundant phylum and Echinodermata was the most diverse phylum of the megafaunal community. The faunal abundance increased with depth, whereas the Shannon diversity index decreased with depth. Cluster analysis suggested seven assemblages, with five abyssal groups, one mixed group, and one hadal dominant group. Although megafaunal communities changed gradually from abyssal zone to hadal zone, both PERMANOVA and PERMDISP analyses revealed that the communities are significantly different between abyssal zone and hadal zone, indicating 6,000 m as the boundary between the two depth zones. Depth, substrate, slope, and latitude were identified as four important environmental factors with significant influence on megafaunal community structure. This study proposed a transition pattern from the abyssal to hadal zone in the Yap Trench, highlighted the importance of habitat heterogeneity in structuring megafaunal community in a hadal trench.

Single-Cell Genomic Sequencing of Three Peritrichs (Protista, Ciliophora) Reveals Less Biased Stop Codon Usage and More Prevalent Programmed Ribosomal Frameshifting Than in Other Ciliates - Xiao Chen; Chundi Wang; Bo Pan; Borong Lu; Chao Li; Zhuo Shen; Alan Warren; Lifang Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020)
Peritrichs are one of the largest groups of ciliates with over 1,000 species described so far. However, their genomic features are largely unknown. By single-cell genomic sequencing, we acquired the genomic data of three sessilid peritrichs ( Cothurnia ceramicola , Vaginicola sp., and Zoothamnium sp. 2). Using genomic data from another 53 ciliates including 14 peritrichs, we reconstructed their evolutionary relationships and confirmed genome skimming as an efficient approach for expanding sampling. In addition, we profiled the stop codon usage and programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) events in peritrichs for the first time. Our analysis reveals no evidence of stop codon reassignment for peritrichs, but they have prevalent +1 or -1 PRF events. These genomic features are distinguishable from other ciliates, and our observations suggest a unique evolutionary strategy for peritrichs.

Elevated IL-22 in psoriasis plays an anti-apoptotic role in keratinocytes through mediating Bcl-xL/Bax - Bo Wang; Dan Han; Fei Li; Weikun Hou; Lijuan Wang; Liesu Meng; Kuanhou Mou; Shemin Lu; Wenhua Zhu; Yan Zhou (Apoptosis, 2020)
IL-22 is known to mediate inflammation in psoriasis, while IL-22 binding protein (IL-22BP) binds IL-22 to suppress IL-22 signaling. However, the function of IL-22 in regulating apoptosis in psoriasis remains poorly understood. In this study, we found that IL-22/IL-22R1 in lesional skin and IL-22 in serum from psoriatic patients were highly upregulated compared with healthy controls, while IL-22BP was not changed. Correlations between IL-22/IL-22R1 levels and the thickness of psoriatic lesions suggested that IL-22 might positively regulate abnormal hyperplasia in psoriasis. Apoptotic keratinocytes were increased only in stratum corneum, but not in spinous and basal layers of psoriasis. Moreover, IL-22 promoted cell viability in human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs). The apoptosis induced by TNF-α and IFN-γ was inhibited in HEKs treated with IL-22, since that IL-22 upregulated Bcl-xL and downregulated Bax production in HEKs in the presence of TNF-α and IFN-γ. In addition, IL-22BP could counteract the anti-apoptotic effect of IL-22. Our finding demonstrates that IL-22 might play an anti-apoptosis role on keratinocytes to balance cell proliferation and apoptosis in psoriatic epidermis.

Metabolic mechanism of colistin resistance and its reverting in Vibrio alginolyticus - Lu Li; Yu‐bin Su; Bo Peng; Xuan‐xian Peng; Hui Li (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Colistin is a last‐line antibiotic against Gram‐negative multidrug‐resistant bacteria, but the increased resistance poses a huge challenge to this drug. However, the mechanisms underlying such resistance are largely unexplored. The present study first identified the mutations of two genes encoding AceF subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) and TetR family transcriptional regulator in colistin‐resistant Vibrio alginolyticus (VA‐R CT ) through genome sequencing. Then, gas chromatography‐mass spectroscopy‐based metabolomics was adopted to investigate metabolic responses since PDH plays a role in central carbon metabolism. Colistin resistance was associated with the reduction of the central carbon metabolism and energy metabolism, featuring the alteration of the pyruvate cycle, a recently characterized energy‐producing cycle. Metabolites in the pyruvate cycle reprogramed colistin‐resistant metabolome to colistin‐sensitive metabolome, resulting in increased gene expression, enzyme activity or protein abundance of the cycle and sodium‐translocating nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide‐ubiquinone oxidoreductase. This reprogramming promoted the production of the proton motive force that enhances the binding between colistin and lipid A in lipopolysaccharide. Moreover, this metabolic approach was effective against VA‐R CT in vitro and in vivo as well as other clinical isolates. These findings reveal a previously unknown mechanism of colistin resistance and develop a metabolome‐reprogramming approach to promote colistin efficiency to combat with colistin‐resistant bacteria.

Feeding intensity and molecular prey identification of the mantis shrimp, Oratosquilla oratoria (De Haan, 1844), in the Tianjin coastal zone of Bohai Bay - Qi‐Kang Bo; Yun‐Zhao Lu; Hui‐Jing Mi; Yan‐Guang Yu; De‐Xian Gu; Hong‐Zheng You; Shuang Hao (Marine Ecology, 2020)
Bohai Bay, a representative semi‐enclosed bay of China, has been severely impacted in recent decades by rapid human development. Although the mantis shrimp Oratosquilla oratoria plays an important role in the Bohai Bay ecosystem and fishery, its feeding ecology and the impact of habitat changes on its feeding habits are poorly known. In this study, we sought to identify its feeding strategy through the separation of stomach contents, and to describe its trophic ecology during maturation in the Tianjin coastal zone of Bohai Bay by the DNA barcoding method using a fragment (about 690 bp) of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (CO I) gene. A total of 594 specimens were collected from March to July 2018, and 347 (58.42%) stomachs were found to have food remains. More than half of the O. oratoria individuals had poor feeding activity, and the degree of feeding of females was higher than that of males, but there was no significant difference in the visual fullness index and the fullness weight index (FWI) between sexes for each month. In addition, the feeding activity of O. oratoria was consistent across the months, suggesting in artificial breeding programs it is not worried too much about the accessional diet supplied to the female bloodstocks except maintaining their normal food. A total of 167 retrieved prey items yielded 187 readable sequences; 86.63% of these sequences could be assigned to the species level. Consequently, 25 different prey taxa covering all readable sequences were identified, showing O. oratoria is a generalist predator. In terms of percent composition by frequency of occurrences (%N), crustaceans and fishes accounted for the same and highest percentage (35.83%) in the mantis shrimp diet, followed by mollusks (24.59%) and the remaining marine organisms (3.73%) including Polychaeta (2.67%), Sagittoidea (0.53%), and Chromadorea (0.53%). The result shows the benthic fish Oxudercidae (family) appears to be an especially important food supply for O. oratoria during maturation. The degree of cannibalism decreased with an increase in diet species and the frequencies of cannibalism in this study was noticeably higher than that in previous studies, suggesting that cannibalism may be a significant feeding strategy in the mantis shrimp O. oratoria in the Tianjin coastal zone of Bohai Bay, and because of the frequently cannibalistic behavior, the high stocking density of broodstocks should be avoided.

A 256‐year‐long precipitation reconstruction for northern Kyrgyzstan based on tree‐ring width - Tongwen Zhang; Bo Lu; Ruibo Zhang; Mamatkanov Diushen; Satylkanov Rysbek; Ermenbaev Bakytbek; Feng Chen; Shulong Yu; Shengxia Jiang; Heli Zhang (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
In this study, 85 tree cores from 45 Schrenk spruces ( Picea schrenkiana ) were used to establish a regional tree‐ring chronology. A 256‐year pJune–May precipitation (where p denotes a month from the previous year) for northern Kyrgyzstan in central Asia was reconstructed using this newly developed chronology. The tree‐ring‐based precipitation reconstruction tracks the observed data well ( r = .622, p n = 105). Spatial correlation proved that the reconstructed precipitation series contains climatic signals representative of a larger area, including eastern Kyrgyzstan and parts of Kazakhstan. A comparison between the newly reconstructed precipitation series and four tree‐ring‐based precipitation reconstructions for the surrounding areas reveals similar variations, particularly in the high‐frequency domain. Furthermore, this reconstructed precipitation series matches nine flood (1785, 1786, 1792, 1952, 1953, 1970, 1971, 1973, and 2000) and four drought (1917, 1919, 1927, and 1944) events noted in the historical documents and captures a dry decade that occurred in the 1910s in central Asia.

Can reanalysis products with only surface variables assimilated capture Madden–Julian oscillation characteristics? - Jingxuan Cui; Lu Wang; Tim Li; Bo Wu (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
The Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO), as a dominant mode of tropical intraseasonal oscillation, plays an important role in the variability of global weather and climate. However, current state‐of‐the‐art atmospheric circulation models have difficulty in reproducing observed MJO characteristics when forced by observed daily sea surface temperature alone. An important practical question is how much data a model needs in assimilation to reproduce real MJO events? By analysing ERA‐20C and NOAA‐20CR reanalysis data, the authors tried to figure out whether a model could reproduce observed MJO events by assimilating the observed surface signal alone. The phase propagation and vertical structure associated with MJO were compared between the reanalysis data and observations during 1979–2010. A total skill score considering both temporal correlation and spatial standard deviation were defined. The result showed that both ERA‐20C and NOAA‐20CR could reproduce the observed MJO characteristics very well, with the former superior to the latter, regardless of MJO intensity. Thus, a minimum requirement for an operational atmospheric model for MJO prediction is the assimilation of the observed surface signals.

Plants are more likely to be spiny at mid‐elevations in the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau, south‐western China - Bo Song; Lu Sun; Simcha Lev‐Yadun; Angela T. Moles; Shuang Zhang; Xuelong Jiang; Yongqian Gao; Qi Xu; Hang Sun (Journal of Biogeography, 2020)
Aim We tested the elevational herbivory defence hypothesis, which predicts that plants from low elevations are better defended than plants from higher elevations. Location The Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau in south‐western China—the world's highest plateau. Taxon Angiosperms. Methods We collated binary spinescence data for 10,622 angiosperm species ranging from 600 to 6,000 m a.s.l. Logistic regression was used to quantify the elevational pattern in spinescence. Because spinescence is thought to be especially effective against mammalian herbivores, we also quantified the association between spinescence and mammalian herbivore richness. Results We found a unimodal relationship between elevation and spinescence, with the highest proportion of spinescent species occurring at mid‐elevations. This unimodal relationship was present in perennial herbs, shrubs and trees, but not in annual herbs. Herbivorous mammal richness also showed a unimodal elevational pattern. A positive association between herbivorous mammal richness and the incidence of spinescent species suggests that elevational variation in herbivore pressure from mammals might drive elevational variation in spinescence. Main Conclusions Our findings further call into question the elevational herbivory defence hypothesis and shed new light on the potential causes of elevational gradients in plant diversity.

Numerical Investigation of the Semi-Active Flapping Foil of the Wave Glider - Zhanfeng Qi; Bo Zou; Huiqiang Lu; Jian Shi; Guofu Li; Yufeng Qin; Jingsheng Zhai (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019)
A numerical investigation is conducted to study the propulsive performance of the semi-active flapping foil of the wave glider, where the heaving smotion is fully prescribed, and the pitching motion is determined by the hydrodynamic force and torsion spring. A mesh for two-dimensional NACA0012 foil with the Reynolds number Re = 42000 is produced, and a dynamic mesh and sliding interface are used in the computation. The influences of reduced frequency, spring stiffness, and critical pitching amplitude on the hydrodynamic characteristics of semi-active flapping foil are systematically investigated. We find that there is a critical reduced frequency: When the reduced frequency is lower than the critical value, the propulsive performance of flapping foil can be improved exponentially, and when the reduced frequency is higher than the critical value, the semi-active flapping foil cannot provide an effective thrust. For a greater reduced frequency, there is an optimal spring stiffness value, which corresponds to the maximum value of the output power coefficient. For a lower reduced frequency, the mean value of the output power coefficient monotonically decreases as the spring stiffness increases. We also notice that the propulsive efficiency of flapping foil monotonically decreases as the spring stiffness increases. Finally, we find that the appropriate critical pitching amplitude can improve the propulsive performance of semi-active flapping foil, especially for greater heaving amplitudes.
